Presenting the FAMOUS $3 POLAR BEAR remainder note from the Continental Bank from Boston, Massachusetts – one of the most desirable obsolete bank notes extant. Highly regarded for its dramatic sea adventure motif, this note depicts a scene of terror as a fierce polar bear attempts to board a small vessel containing a group of fur clad seal hunters. In the background is the mother ship, too far away to render immediate assistance. More common than the fully issued example but incredibly rare in a certified GEM holder, securing this note for your collection will add years of enjoyment and prestige. Listed as #24 in the "100 Greatest American Currency Notes" by Q. David Bowers and David M. Sundman
